New Poster Child of the Democratic Congress

Posted:

Remember Mark Foley, the pervert congressman who was way too interested in congressional pages? And who the Democrats attempted to hang around the neck of the entire Republican congress in 2006? Yeah him. Well, the guy who the Democrats replaced him with was two-timing his wife and paying the mistress hush money. At the same time he was running ads like this:



Faith, Family, Values... Heh!

ABC News:

Mahoney, who is married, also promised the woman, Patricia Allen, a $50,000 a year job for two years at the agency that handles his campaign advertising, the staffers said. A Mahoney spokesperson would not answer questions about the alleged affair or the settlement, but said Allen resigned of her own accord and "has not received any special payment from campaign funds." Senior Democratic leaders in the House of Representatives, including Rep. Rahm Emanuel (D-IL), the chair of the Democratic Caucus, have been working with Mahoney to keep the matter from hurting his re-election campaign, the Mahoney staffers said.
I'm really glad we got rid of that "culture of Republican corruption" and replaced it with a "culture of Democratic corruption". Oh and the fact that Rahm Emmanuel knew about this beforehand and tried to cover it up... According to the "Foley" standard, that means he should step down for fostering the culture. But I'm guessing the Democrats quit caring about such things oh about November 2006.
